A prescriber's authorized agent telephones a new amoxicillin prescription to a Texas community pharmacy while the pharmacist is on site. Which staff member may receive and transcribe the oral order without exercising clinical judgment?
Correct answer: B - A registered pharmacy technician working under pharmacist supervision
Two pharmacists are on site at a Texas Class A pharmacy with seven registered technicians and five technician trainees. Assignments are divided so that neither pharmacist supervises more than six support personnel or three trainees. A site-trained pharmacist-intern is also performing only technician functions under direct pharmacist supervision. Under the standard staffing rule, which conclusion is correct?
Correct answer: D - The arrangement is permitted under the standard rule; the intern is excluded from the ratio.
A flood emergency requires one pharmacist to serve as PIC for two Texas Class A pharmacies that remain open at the same time. The pharmacist works 12 hours per week at each location. What changes when the arrangement reaches its 31st consecutive day?
Correct answer: A - The emergency exception ends after 30 consecutive days; new PIC coverage is required.
After recognizing a substance-use problem, a Texas pharmacist self-refers to the Professional Recovery Network. Which statement most accurately describes that referral?
Correct answer: C - PRN supports recovery and public protection; unsafe practice is still barred.
A physician assistant practicing under a valid Texas prescriptive authority agreement issues a Schedule IV prescription for a 30-day supply with one refill. Before the refill, the PA consults the delegating physician and documents the consultation in the chart. All dispensing will occur within six months. How should the pharmacist treat the refill authorization?
Correct answer: C - Honor it if all other requirements are met because total therapy is 60 days.
An emergency oral Schedule II prescription met all three federal emergency conditions and was dispensed immediately. Nine days have passed, but the prescriber has not delivered the required written or compliant electronic follow-up. What should the pharmacist do?
Correct answer: A - Notify DEA as required and preserve the emergency-dispensing record.
The pharmacy receives a faxed Schedule II morphine prescription for a patient enrolled in hospice. The prescription contains the required hospice notation and otherwise satisfies all legal requirements. Which conclusion is correct?
Correct answer: D - The fax may serve as the original under the hospice exception.
Parents bring their 10-year-old child to a Texas pharmacist for an influenza vaccine. The pharmacist has a valid physician protocol, completed the required immunization training, holds current CPR credentials, and meets all other conditions. No physician referral was obtained. What is the lawful course?
Correct answer: B - Administer under the influenza exception for patients older than seven.
Ten months ago, a Texas pharmacy dispensed metoprolol 25 mg tablets to a patient. The same pharmacy now receives a prescription for metoprolol 50 mg tablets, and the patient says counseling is unnecessary because the drug name is familiar. How is the prescription classified for counseling purposes?
Correct answer: A - It is new because the strength changed, so the counseling process applies.
A licensed nursing facility returns a sealed unit-dose package of an FDA-approved, noncontrolled tablet to the dispensing pharmacy. The package never entered the patient's possession, was stored correctly, does not require refrigeration, is not recalled or compounded, and has 150 days remaining before expiration. After pharmacist inspection and required documentation, which disposition is permitted?
Correct answer: C - Restock and redispense it under the qualifying facility-return exception.
